Purva Phaterpekar - Near August Kranti Maidan Gowalia Tank, Tardeo Mumbai Maharashtra

Buildings in my area are pretty old so the sparrows are familiar and acquainted to locations they can use for nesting.
Although the birds are pretty healthy some do not have healthy feathers. The feathers are lighter in some places and seem to be disoriented.
Their calls are usually every morning from about 6-7 to 11 and in evening from 4-5 to just before night all.
I can actually hear chip chip chip by one of the many sparrows right now. Lucky Me :)



Sathya Chelvan - Guruvareddiyur Government High School Guruvareddiyur Tamil Nadu

The sparrows in groups of 5 - 10 visit the terrace of our house daily in the morning. They used to eat the leftovers we place for them in the parapet wall. From my observation, I found that apart from the normal foods like cereals or rice, sparrows have a liking for the coconut. We used to put the broken coconut shells in the terrace. They will have some coconut which escaped from them grilling. The sparrows show some liking towards that and they keep on chirping inside the shells to take the remaining coconut pieces from that.

Lakshman - Judicial Layout Judicial Layout Bangalore Karnataka

I stay in a layout/colony in Bangalore city outskirt. Behind my house is a vast expanse of forest area...This forest area is part of the Agricultural University.

I see few sparrows everyday...they fly into my balcony.

Recently when they set fire to the dry leaves of the forest, I did not see or even hear the chirping of any bird in the vicinity. I wonder why this is done...why set fire to dry leaves? .... it contributes to pollution, and drives away the birds and animals!
